I noticed this too..

At first I thought it was strange but when I watched again it looks very similar to what power lines look like when they go down.

I'm really interested in knowing what this is 100%.

I agree with the earthquake lights, makes sense.

read the theories section on the wiki about it.

Many people are specualting what this was all over the net. The one thing that's for certain in all of this is the planet is shaking and the world is going through some pretty rough times. I for one feel that the lights and things like this are distractions from the real issues at hand. People are suffering because of earth changes, wars and political leaders who don't really care about the people. All I know is there is some pretty strange stuff going on and we need to come up with some real answers about a lot of it soon or just sit back and enjoy the show!! No offense meant just my two cents!

here is how bright a small transformer is

But you will probably find it was a substation not a transformer

Here is a sub going

Having grown up in Northern Cali that is a VERY familiar sight.

Notice that as the flashes die out the lights start going out in the buildings you can see...

Unlike lightning strikes where the transformers EXPLODE... generally speaking there is Arcing and etc for several seconds (which is the flashes seen in the vid) then the power drops as circuits trip.

It was "only" a substation destroying itself violently due to the earthquake... I know funny thing to marginalize by saying oh it was only this. But it's better than an explosion which would indicate more destruction and probably lives lost.

An earthquake light is an unusual luminous aerial phenomenon that reportedly appears in the sky at or near areas of tectonic stress, seismic activity, or volcanic eruptions.

It's either an Earthquake light or a Transformer blowing up. It doesn't have to be an alien UFO attack or "HAARP" or something.

hope your being sarcastic there I have posted two videos one of a transformer and a substation going bang on page 4 if people actually care to look. No foul play just things going bang during an earthquake like normal

No, clearly it isn't from all the proof you've seen stating how it's a transformer.

Take that tin foil hat off, it's clouding your judgement.

After having lived in florida for so many years, I have seen powerlines go down....never was there such a bright light that continued for that long as shown in those....there are circuit breakers and transformers that will blow in the event a surge or a break in the line...it is a safety precaution.

The news people are saying that it is possibly that "phenomenon thought to occur due to intense electromagnetic activity with the movement of tectonic plates". In other words...move along...nothing to see here....

We will have to just wait and see....

It is a power substation going down for the count. There really is nothing to see here..

I agree with most of the posters that this is a sub station or transformer blowing.

Spikey and Rougetechie both noticed that about 4-5 seconds after the light goes out in the distance the lights in the city go out as you approach the camera view.

Greetings:

Meanwhile, back to the Fukushima World-Killer Nuke Meltdowns and the [color=limegreen]continuing radiation poising of our land, food and children - 24/7/365.

zorgon, what is your take on this?


Well, I spent three weeks following that Fukushima story doggedly... then in the end I found out three things...

1) Except for a handful of people and those that live in the area... NO ONE CARES...

2) We are still here... 1000's of nuke tests (especially near my home town) medical radiation, space radiation, CME's, cell tower radiation, microwave radiation... etc etc.. and we are STILL HERE.. and world population is increasing exponentially

3) Radiation is good for you


Greetings:

Thank you for your insightful and timely response.

1) We have been attempting to sound the alarm in the many nuke-related threads in our signature, and have come to the same conclusion: NO ONE CARES...

However, having spent the last six weeks on the road in the Hurricane Irene-ravaged areas of North Carolina, we were amazed - no, dumfounded - that [color=limegreen]NOT ONE PERSON we spoke with (including fellow First Responder Volunteer Firepersons) had any clue about Fukushima 24/7/365.

The Captain of the local department said that "there is no problem, or the USGOV/EPA would alert us, and it would be on television, right? (!???!)

Revised Conclusion: The people have been denied the basic information to make informed decisions as to how best "handle" the radiation poisoning nightmare.

2) Never thought that you would not be (there) "here" - after all, who would want to leave that pool? And whatever happens in "here" (there) stays in "here," (there), right mate?

3) You and Ann Coulter make such a great pair...

Glad to be back.

As we have been attempting to bring to light for over six months (!), there exists a world-wide conspiracy in the MSM to deprive the public of the facts regarding the dire consequences of the melt-throughs of the nuclear reactors at Fukushima-Daiichi.

Please listen up, people.

Your life and the lives of your loved ones may very well depend on your access to and use thereof of potentially life-saving information being kept from you by the EPA/USGOV.

The total number of days between Friday, March 11th, 2011 and Tuesday, October 11th, 2011 is 214 days.

The radiation poisoning of our people, food and land has continued unabated - 24/7/365 - for exactly 7 months.

For your edification and enjoyment (bewilderment), a few 'notable' stories that seemed to miss mass circulation and perhaps a peek at what might have been missed on the 6:00 o'clock news...:

Three days into the disaster, this FOR EYES ONLY memo circulated at the NRC.

14 March 2011
NRC ONLY Update – All 3 Reactor Cores Likely Damaged

15 March 2011
Fukushima Daiichi Units Degrading – Zirconium Fire at Reactor 4 SFP – Reactor 2 Possible Reactor Vessel Breach & Ex-Vessel Core Reaction

My goodness gracious! And we thought they (TEPCO/JAPGOV) said they had this "stabilized..." and presumably under control...

At least, that is what they (and the EPA/USGOV) would have you believe.

Fast-forward about six months to more headlines you may have missed in your local media:

21 August 2011
Fukushima Officials Worry New Discovery of Radioactive Beef Will Harm Reputation More After Farmer Confirms Cattle Not Fed Contaminated Rice Straw


21 August 2011
4,000 Potentially Radioactive Cows Without Radioactive Rice Hay May Have Been Shipped from One Farm in Namie-Machi, Fukushima

29 August 2011
Why the Fukushima Disaster Is Worse Than Chernobyl

[color=limegreen]Will this insanity ever end?
